Spelman College: A $500,000 Endowed Scholarship Through Peer-Led Giving
Spelman College 2020 Visionaries Giving Circle
Impact in Numbers
$500,000
Endowed scholarship mobilized through peer-led giving
21 Alumnae
Active participants in the Giving Circle
A group of Spelman alumnae proved that when alumni are given a structured path to give together, affinity-based peer influence becomes powerful. This circle started with strong personal relationships and evolved into a coordinated giving model.
Britt Hogue, one of the founders pictured in this circle, saw the power of this model firsthand and went on to co-found Connect To Give to help replicate this success across institutions.
